Milaré Advogados

Environmental advocacy is the mainstay of boutique firm Milaré Advogados, a ‘pioneer in Brazil’ providing exhaustive coverage of contentious and non-contentious issues experienced by every industry interacting with the environmental sphere. Praised for its outstanding performance in judicial, administrative, and criminal environmental law proceedings, the firm is equally at home consulting on licensing processes for infrastructure and energy projects, normative instruments for regional authorities, regulatory compliance, as well as international and comparative law relating to socio-environmental impacts. Founding partner Édis Milaré, ’identified nationally and internationally as the most notable specialist in environmental law in Brazil and Latin America’, supervises the practice alongside Lucas Tamer Milaré, whose background in diffuse and collective rights facilitates a holistic approach to legal environmental concerns. Maria Clara Rodrigues Alves Gomes has a masterful grasp of infrastructure-related industries like energy, mining, oil and gas, and transport, and Thiago Sales Pereira is highly capable in managing litigation for national and multinational companies. Rubens Silveira Neto leads on civil litigation matters, while Lupércio Alves Cruz de Carvalho is accomplished in complex licensing processes and major litigation cases. Roberta Jardim de Morais and Mayara Alves Bezerra left the firm in July 2023.
